Boise City is soon to be inflicted
with the Only Original Double I'm
Gle Toms Cabin Company, with
two Topsies, two Marks, whole
band of Blood-Thirsty Siberian
Blood Hounds, and full support
of Jack-asses. Our afflicted sister
has our earnest sympathy in this
her hour of greatest need. By the
way, the old girl who attempted to
WELD the raw-hide up there some
time ago, should go and take few
lessons from Simon Legree.
The "Dime Social" is getting
to be great social event. Every
body attends and all unite in say
ing that they are by far the most
enjoyable society gatherings in the
history of Caldwell. The social
held at the residence of Mr.. M. B.
Gwinn last Thursday night was
even more brilliant, if possible,
than any of its predecessors. Mr..
and Mrs. Gwinn did all in their
power to entertain their guests, and
so well did they succeed that the
hour of going home came to soon
for all.
We have heard some little OBJ
lection to the new school house by
persons who were under the i'm
preston that the $1,000 bonds to
be voted were to be used in start
ing mammoth structure and only
completing it as it was needed,
thereby making continual tax for
to finish the school house. Such is
not the case, however. The 81 900
not only completes the building,
but also furnishes it throughout.
Others object on the ground that
$1,000 is not enough. We admit
that $4,000 would be much better,
but under the law $1,000 is the
maximum forwhich our district can
be bonded.
Some moths ago THE TRIBUNE
attempted to interest some in burn
ing brick in Caldwell, and showed
where it would be a good thing
No one felt disposed to risk it, how
ever, and here we are on the eve of
a building boom and no brick. If
the school bonds carry to-day,
Caldwell will demand at least
400, 1000 brick this season. We heard
some knowing ones on the street
the other day declare that brick
could not be burned properly with
coal. This was simply talk just to
hear it, for in portions of Iowa,
where the very best wood for brick
burning abounds, coal is used in
preference. It's a wonder that
some old moss-back don't 90 back
to Pharaoh's time and declare you
can't make brick without straw.
81 have no time to write locals
to-day" said Mr.. Geo. Little, from
his perch on step-ladder, where
he was busily engaged in storing
away piles and piles of wall paper.
'Look at this rack; and that one
over there; and Gin the floor there
too," he continued, as he slipped an
elegant design into the wrong ap-
partment. We looked and beheld |
piles and piles of wall paper, all of
the very latest designs. Cheap pa
per, costly paper, modest paper,
stylish paper, ali kinds of paper.
"Got more coming, too" said the
genial George, as he came down to
take up another load, "and we are
going to sell it dirt cheap, too; have
to, you know, to make room to
store it; have to sell it." We would
advise any one wanting wall paper
to sec Little & Cos stock.
-"Allan Quartermain; or, A
Browning City," the new story by
the author of "She," increases in
in Demorest's Monthly
for April, and promises to
rival it's predecessor in wonderful
adventure. The other contents of
